A continuously variable transmission is mounted on a vehicle capable of selecting plural drive modes and changes a target engine speed between drive modes. A pulley ratio is controlled by a motor. An ECU for transmission control includes a calculation section which outputs a target engine speed as a function of throttle opening and vehicle speed, and a motor control value determination section which outputs a control value for controlling the motor based on the target engine speed and an actual engine speed. In a case where, when a drive mode is selected, the current target engine speed changes by an amount exceeding a predetermined judgment value according to vehicle speed, the motor control value determination section updates the current target engine speed in a stepwise manner. The resulting configuration reduces a shift shock caused by a drive mode change.

A vehicle engine is coupled to a driving system that includes a torque converter and an automatic transmission. An ECU sets a target value of an opening degree of a throttle valve based on a depression degree of an acceleration pedal.

As a result, shock produced when the direction of torque between the driving system and the engine is switched is suppressed.
